Yehba, the new cell communication application

A Filipino-owned company, D3 Systems Inc., has produced a GPRS application that allows for person to person communication via a cellphone with GPRS. They are aiming to make 'texting' cheaper since a 160 character message costs only 14 centavos to send as compared to the 1 peso of a regular SMS message.

The software needs a series 60 or series 80 phone which means that even the nokia 3200 cant run it. The nokia 3650's and equally high tech phones can. So far, there are no ads on the software but eventually that will change because it is where the company will get their money.

I have yet to try it. Im not sure if it can run in the background while i let my phone do its regular thing or i have to check the application every so often for messages. I'll keep you updated ;)

Any chance they'll be developing a version for PDA phones with PPC?

Nokia C1

  I bought 3 Nokia C1 units because i thought Nokia is still the old Nokia. I was wrong. The C1 is so slow. It takes time to get  to answer calls slow. Also, it has a bug. It will just stop accepting your passkey or pattern and wont let you in. You'll need to bring it to the shop and have them unlock it for you.  Of the 3 units, only 1 works now. One just wont open anymore and the other manifested the bug and i still cant find out where to send it. I also bought a keypad nokia some time ago. After a year, it wont function properly. Nokia is not the nokia of old. I dont think i'll buy any more nokias in the future.

Cherry Mobile battery replacement

Today, our secretary reported that the cherry mobile battery in one of our office phones. They called me while i was in greenhills shopping center. One would think that i can easily find a replacement battery in greenhills of all places. No, no battery in the shopping area, virra mall or even in the cherry mobile store in the theater mall. Yes, their store doesn't carry a battery.

Globe lifestyle plan or else

This is another Globe Telecom​ rant. I called globe (yes, i still have to deal with them) earlier because i realized that i'm paying them a lot for the office globe phone and i don't get rebates. I know i'm out of contract so i should get rebates. They offer me their new lifestyle plan for 499. Neat right? Wrong. They will NOT give me rebates unless i pay an extra 100 to reach their 599 limit and the rebate they are giving is 125 pesos per month. So technically, they are just giving me 25 pesos rebate per month since we wont be using the extra 100 given that the office also has a sun line and a smart line. Worse, the agent says, the 2 lines of my in laws are out of contract too. I said, "Cool! How much rebate can they get per month?" I was then told that unless i convert those lines to the new plans, there will be no rebates. Even if the lines are used to the cost of thousands each month (by my in laws) they will not be given anything in return. I swear, they
